Publisher Description: Trained in one of Europe's leading art academies, Ingrid Geerhold migrated to America after World War II. Settling in Niagara Falls, she worked as a fashion illustrator for department store advertisements. The bulk of her career was spent at Sibley's, the iconic Rochester department store. Read the fascinating story of her life, from childhood in Czechoslovakia's Sudetenland, adolescence and college in war-torn Vienna, to her new life in New York. The book is filled with pictures and samples of her outstanding work, including an advertisement prepared for a possible Buffalo Bills win in the 1993 Super Bowl that was never used. |
